While everyone was busy discussing, Amut opened its mouth wide in the projection in the sky.
Immediately after, it swallowed an island that was comparable to a continent in one gulp.
It was like a god of destruction, and it wrought havoc wherever it went.
Everyone was burning with anxiety as they attempted to figure out Joe's identity.
Two Great Beast Tamer Stage pet beasts and a Peak Stage 9 pet beast.
Just how powerful is he to be able to raise such powerful beasts?
While everyone was still mowing it over...
The Hundred Beasts Board announced the third-ranked beast.
[ 3rd place: Behemoth ]
[ Level: Late Great Beast Tamer Stage ]
[ Phase: Growing ]
[ Region: Sans Ferrywood Ancient Shoals ]
[ Master: Joe ]
"I'm numb, I'm completely numb now. How many pet beasts does this Joe have?"
Countless citizens of the entire blue planet were so overwhelmed that their bodies were trembling.
It was too terrifying.
To think that all three Great Beast Tamer Stage beasts had belonged to the same master.
This was simply beyond their understanding.
Although it was not impossible to own more than one pet beast...
As a matter of fact, some big shots would even nurture many pet beasts.
However, there was not a single person who owned this many pet beasts and was able to nurture them to such a stage.
Perhaps there were some reclusive experts who were able to do this by chance, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that the chances were one in a billion.
'Just how strong is this Joe? He's actually able to possess three Great Beast Tamer Stage pet beasts?"
"Moreover, the origin of this Behemoth is also very vague. There aren't any records of it beyond a few small excerpts.'
Zacarias of the Aramborg Religion frowned and did not say anything.
In the Oguapu Palace, Sylvester was even more dumbfounded.
In the Chacabuk Basin, numerous experts who were fast asleep suddenly shot up from their beds, their hearts trembling as they looked at the terrifying mythical projection.
The Burbus temple, the La Powo Palace, and even the powerhouses from the Weizhou Bao Temple who were rejoicing earlier were silenced.
The name Joe was like a heavy mountain that was exerting heavy pressure on everyone's hearts.
However...
There was an exception, the rebels.
Whoosh!
In the rebel's capital, two figures, tore through the air and arrived one after another.
"Second Elder, Fifth Elder, you're back!"
Upon spotting the two figures, the Sixth Elder was immediately overjoyed.
"Congratulations! Congratulations! Your expedition this time has been rather fruitful! To think that both of you had managed to obtain two Beast Kings!"
The First Elder stroked his beard and laughed loudly, unable to contain his joy.
However...
Despite the First Elder's compliments, Armstrong and Galsworthy did not respond at all. Their expressions were actually even more solemn than they would be in a funeral.
Seeing this...
The expressions of the First and Sixth Elder changed. They felt that something was unusual.
"What's wrong? Did something happen to the pets?"
The sixth elder asked with concern.
"Nothing happened."
Armstrong shook his head slightly and denied.
Hearing this, the two elders felt relieved, but then they became suspicious.
"That's not right. Since there's no change, why do both of you look so grim?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Galsworthy raise his hand and point at the powerful beast in the projection.
"It's because of that!"
"That?"
Everyone's expressions changed in unison. It was actually related to the third-ranked Behemoth?
This was an earth-shattering event.
Who knew that what the Third Elder said next would make them instantly tremble.
"Fifth elder and I entered a ruin accidentally in the Jade Lake of the Forbidden Land. In that ruin, there is a broken stone tablet that contains a piece of secret information from the end of the Era of the Gods."
Armstrong took a deep breath and tried his best to calm himself down.
"When the two of us studied it together, we discovered that the secret information was already in tatters. Only a stone carving of a beast remained."
Armstrong's voice paused, and he could not help but look at Galsworthy.
Seeing this, Galsworthy's voice trembled as he said.
"It looks exactly the same as the Behemoth up there."
Boom!
The two elders felt their minds rumble, as if they were struck by lightning.
This news was too shocking.
For a moment, they were unable to regain their senses.
Sans Ferrywood Ancient Shoals was owned by the rebels, and it was a mystical realm that had existed since the Era of the Gods.
However, the rebels' mythology had always been incomplete.
They could only gain bits and pieces of the land's secrets by exploring clues found in ruins.
As such, they knew little of the Divine Beasts that used to wander Sans Ferrywood Ancient Shoals.
They had no idea at all.
However...
Armstrong had actually brought back one such secret.
Armstrong enunciated each word, and relayed the information that he had come across.
The other three elders were all shocked.
The description of the Behemoth was actually exactly the same as the beast in the projection.
"Is the Behemoth supposed to belong to us rebels?"
"Does that mean that Joe is a rebel as well?"
The Sixth Elder felt his voice trembling. However, it was not fear, it was excitement.
He even addressed Joe respectfully.
"If that's the case, Master Joe might be the founder of the rebels."
With that thought, the four people's hearts shook.
They had already made up their minds to secretly search for Master Joe. Who knows, he might be living within the rebel cities.
Rumble!
The Hundred Beasts Board rumbled and changed once more.
Everyone held their breaths, and stared intently at the board.
They wanted to see what was the beast that made second place.
Rumble!
The sky shook, as and the clouds began to churn.
Following that, new lines appeared on the Hundred Beasts Board.
[ 2nd place: Five-headed Abyssal Dragon (Water Form) ]
[ Level: Late Great Beast Tamer Stage ]
[ Phase: Growing ]
[ Region: ? ? ? ]
[ Master: Joe ]
Whoosh!
Before the information could be fully displayed, a terrifying golden light flashed!
Bam!
As if the heavens and earth had been opened up, an incomparably vast and boundless ocean of terror emerged from the projection.
Everyone seemed to have been pulled into a vast and boundless ocean in an instant.
Even powerful beast tamers were unable to see the end of the ocean.
Huala!
All of a sudden, a wave appeared on the calm surface of the ocean.
The wave was calm at first, but it grew faster and higher.
Rumble!
In the end, it turned into a huge wave that surged towards the sky.
In a single hit, it completely submerged an island the size of a continent.
"Oh? It doesn't seem that different from the Behemoth in terms of strength."
Some people were puzzled.
However, their doubts were soon quelled. Their pupils suddenly constricted, and they were instantly overwhelmed with shock.
Only a dragon's tail could be seen in the projection.
The dragon tail was so big that it was comparable to a continent.
Hiss!
It was then that they realized, the source of the waves was just the dragon's tail.
